Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams seedless grapes (any variety, preferably green or red)
- 50 grams gelatin powder (flavored, such as grape, strawberry, or lime)
- 50 milliliters water (cold or ice-cold)
Instructions
Wash the grapes thoroughly under cold water, and pat them dry using a kitchen towel or paper towels. Leave them slightly damp to help the gelatin powder adhere better.
Transfer the grapes into a large mixing bowl.
Sprinkle the cold water evenly over the grapes and gently toss to ensure all the grapes are slightly moistened. Be careful not to crush the grapes.
Pour the gelatin powder onto a large plate or shallow bowl, spreading it out evenly. Choose your preferred flavor to complement the grapes.
Roll the damp grapes in the gelatin powder in small batches, ensuring each grape is coated evenly. Use a spoon or your hands to gently press if needed.
Place the coated grapes onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a flat serving tray in a single layer to prevent sticking.
Allow the grapes to sit for about 5-10 minutes so the gelatin powder can set and develop its sparkling effect.
Serve immediately as a fun snack or refrigerate for up to 24 hours in an airtight container for a chilled treat.
